No assault rifle used in Sandy Hook school shooting

NBC Admitted: No Assault Rifle Used In Sandy Hook School Shooting
When the president surrounds himself with children while giving his announcement that reasonable gun control measures are necessary, bear in mind that those ‘assault rifles‘ the government is sure to be going after were not even used in the Newton, Connecticut elementary shooting. As NBC admits in the video above, four handguns were used to carry out that despicable atrocity. This directly contradicts other reports.

Pete Williams, who is NBC’s chief Justice correspondent, reported the following in the video posted above:

This continues to be a very complex investigation and there is a lot of contradictory information out there, but we have some new information this morning (one month ago) from a couple of federal officials and state officials.

They say now that there were actually four handguns inside the school, not just two as we were initially told. Four handguns and apparently only handguns that were taken into the school.

We knew that Adam Lanza, the man said to be the gunman here, also had an ‘assault-style’ AR-15 -style rifle that he had had taken to the school, it was in the car he drove there, his mother’s car, but we have been told by several officials that he had left that in the car.

The correspondent makes it clear over and over again that he confirmed this information with federal and state officials. Now, a lot of media reports contradict this one, but somebody’s lying. The report that an ‘AR-15-style’ assault rifle was in the trunk of murderer Adam Lanza’s car is up for dispute as well. If one examines footage from police breaking into Lanza’s car, one sees police clearing a round from a “long gun of some type” that does not appear to be ‘AR-15 style’ or ‘assault-style.’

Whether or not the mainstream media are intentionally spreading disinformation about the Sandy Hook elementary tragedy, there is one thing for certain: not only are violent crime rates at a modern low and going down, but only 323 homicides were committed by rifles in 2011. That includes hunting rifles, assault rifles, military style rifles, semi-automatic rifles and whatever label one comes up with, regardless of magazine or clip capacity.

In a nation of 311 million people, the odds of being killed by a rifle is about one homicide per million people, which is far less than the odds of being murdered by a blunt object. But we don’t hear the media arguing about regulating hammers and clubs. Again, when 99.7% of registered gun owners are law-abiding, gun control is not about guns, it’s about control

This BS has been spreading around for awhile, it appears there was some confusion around the time the event happened - imagine that! From what is known now:

Adam Lanza brought three weapons inside Sandy Hook Elementary school on December 14 and left a fourth in his car, police said. Those weapons were a Bushmaster AR-15 rifle and two handguns -- a Glock 10 mm and a Sig Sauer 9 mm.

In the car he left a shotgun, about which police have offered no details. Lanza used one of the handguns to take his own life, although police haven't said whether the gun was the Glock or the Sig Sauer.

There is a video shot from above that clearly shows an leo clearing a rifle of projectiles, and it NOT a shotgun.

Now lets think outside the box for a minute... you libs capable of doing that?

If there is VIDEO of one thing (as in one can SEE it with their own eyes)... yet someone says something else (one has to take someone's word for something)... which one would you consider more credible?

Now if this was an argument about the existence of God... What one could SEE would be more important than what someone said...
Seems the rules change based on what one wants the outcome to be.

Sure is scientific and logical here... NOT

You libs are guilty of everything you accuse conservatives of... So fess up or shut up... Your choice.

What I would like to know is why the police on the scene let this misinformation continue for so long. They obviously knew within of hours of the crime how many and what type of guns were recovered in the classroom, in the trunk of the car and that Lanza was there the day before arguing with school staff. This information is not confidential or crucial to be concealed from the public.

Are the police in on the cover-up? Why shouldn’t the police have to answer for this misinformation campaign? Were the Police told by the Feds to lie about everything except the body count…since that is the only thing they got right?

How can those police go home at night, watch the news, see what is being reported and then let the misinformation continue without feeling the responsibility to clear it up?

I have Brian on ignore... yet sometimes my gut says to read one of his posts...

The one above is the questions we should be asking... and until those questions are answered... WITH PROOF... To trust the govt to do ANYTHING would be like giving the key to your house to a criminal to 'watch' for you...
